What do you want to obtain in life?
Happiness.
I want that feeling you get when the sun sits upon the edge of the horizon,
The smile that stretches across a once depressed face.
The sensation of more than having butterflies in your stomach.
I want the happiness that comes when cheeks graze each other,
The happiness when fingers brush through your hair,
The happiness that embraces you when arms do.
I want the happiness that confiscates my heart when I come across cyan eyes.
Do you have this type of happiness?
I have it by the hand,
But I want to have it with me,
Always.
Isn’t that too much to ask for?
Not when you've had it with you before,
Like a photograph of the orange sun,
Like the smile you capture upon their face,
Like the first time you held their hand.

I want the happiness that teaches me to forget the hardships in life for just one day.
